Trainer sleeping in cab

Something you have to get used to for a short period of time. It's understandable though, how you feel. I'm similar, but being in the Navy, I learned to tune all that out, so a transition to trucking was easy. I would never team though, except as a new driver being trained.
I trained myself to be the only invisible person in a crowded room.

 

Someone posted a few months ago about a company where the trainer sleeps in a motel and the trainee stays in the truck. Seems strange, but that's what was posted.
TransAm has a short training period of 10 or 11 days. They push lease-purchase, so you'd have to fight that and stay a company driver. You could stay there for 3 - 6 mos. then find a better company.

As @Chinatown said, your best bet if this is what you think you want is just adjust to it for a short while. I would suggest a company like Wilson where the training is in miles rather than days though. You want your learning to be as in depth as possible, not quick and pointless.

 

Sound like you need local job

 

Yeah, Wilson Logistics has an excellent reputation and the pay is good.

 

They've been good to me so far, but as with every company "your mileage may vary". Knowing what I know now I think the training miles is better than days, since it means definite training with somebody there by you. 4 weeks of training doesn't mean bull spit, if 3 days out of 7 were sitting waiting on loads.

 

When I trained with Schneider, they got me a hotel for the 2 weeks of training because it was dedicated Walmart account and we were back at the DC nightly, except for 1 night got stuck out so we both slept in truck. Easy stuff.

 

Not every company does it like that. I got a one week training on local pickups and never spent a night with the trainer. Good thing because they don't have any double bunks. Before that I got my experience paving and that training was to drive a mile and then come back. Got my license at a state sponsored school.
